Dear Kell,
Thank you for sharing with us, the fans, what must have been a very personal and traumatic time in your life. Know that we truly appreciate it.
I did meet Michael once...when I was 15 at a Duran Duran concert, no less. I noticed him because he was wearing this outrageous white shirt with HUGE ants all over it! Being 15, I looked, then looked away, then looked again. He saw me looking, swaggered,(as only he could) over, and said, “Hi sweetie....want my autograph?” He asked my name, signed, kissed my cheek and was promptly swamped my giggling teenage girls.
The day he died, I found that very autograph & spent all afternoon framing it with a beautiful photo of Michael.
Today it hangs on my wall as my own little tribute to a fabulous & charismatic showman, & by all accounts, a truly decent human being.
I hope Kell, that all theses loving tributes, by so many fans & friends, bring a little bit of comfort to your sorrow.
Kind regards,
Gabriela
